Newborn Hat to Match the Dress

I made a
newborn hat to match the dress from my previous post. I used the same shells as
the ones used in the dress. The hat turned out stretchy and very soft. Now if
made a pair of baby booties, I would have a lovely baby girl gift set.

This pattern is my original design. It cannot be posted on other

pattern, you can post ONE image on your site with the link to my original post.
You can use this pattern to make items for personal use or for sale. If you

Round
3:Sl st into next ch-1 space, ch 4, dc
in same ch-1 space, V-st into next space between two V-st of previous round,
*V-st into next 2 V-st, V-st into next space between two V-st of previous
round* 5 times, V-st into next V-st. Join with sl st into 3rd ch of beginning
ch-4.

Round 4: Sl
st into next ch-1 space, ch 4, dc in same ch-1 space, V-st in each V-st around.
Join with sl st into 3rd ch of beginning ch-4.

Thank you for the measurement early on! I have a tough time with some items. Last hat was 3" tall and 12" around! Infant size, of course. Another hat was supposed to fit a 10 YO and it fit my 24" head!

So far so good! YEA! The only problem I have reading the problem is row 10. I believe I should have 9 shells in that row. If I DC in the shells and SC in the CH1 space, wouldn't I have 18 stitches in the last row? It looks like there are several stitches edging each shell.Thanks!

Hi, Olga! Could you help me, please? I'm stuck in round 3, when I get to the end and I have to slip stitch to join my work, there's a huge gap between the V-st and the initial four chains. I got 24 sts in round 1, 36 sts in round 2 and 41 sts in round 3, is this right? I tried going on despite the gap but found trouble again in the following rounds. Can you see what I did wrong? Could you please say how many stitches are we supposed to have at the end of each round? Thank you very much. Marisol

I'm fairly new to crocheting and I am attempting to make this adorable hat. My only issue is round 3. It says to V stitch into next space between two v stitch of previous round, *V-st into next 2 V st into next space between two V-st of previous round* 5 times. I know that the * is repeat but to me it sounds like it's saying the same thing. Please help!! I am trying to make this hat for a friend who is having a baby girl next month. Thank you!!
